Welcome!

We are so grateful to you, our donors! The Miss Arkansas Scholarship Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3), is the sole fundraising entity for the Miss Arkansas Scholarship Competition.
 
Thanks to generous donors, the Competition has maintained a tradition of empowering young women to achieve their personal and professional goals while providing a forum to express their opinions, talents, and intelligence.

​

Thanks to your generous support, a record-breaking $291,000 in scholarships was awarded this year – the highest amount in the history of the Miss Arkansas Organization! We are thrilled to announce that every candidate, both Miss and Teen, received a scholarship, ensuring all 81 contestants were recognized for their participation.

​

Our goal is to make 2025 the greatest scholarship year in the 86 years of history of the Miss Arkansas competition. We invite you to contribute to these important scholarships. Here are three ways to donate:
 

Casino Party

This is our primary fundraiser. It is a fun-filled casino-style night with games, prizes, a DJ, snacks, and a cash bar. Last year, more than 300 attended!

​

Join The Crown Club

Formed in 2024, the Miss Arkansas Crown Club helps build general scholarship funding. 100% of your gift will fund scholarships. Click here to learn more about the Crown Club benefits. 

 

Fund an Existing Scholarship

There are many existing scholarship opportunities to fund for both Miss Arkansas’ Teen and Miss Arkansas candidates. These range from $500-$30,000.

 

By donating, you will directly impact young women across the state of Arkansas, enabling them to achieve their academic goals. Thanks to you and other generous donors, the Miss Arkansas system is one of the top scholarship providers for women in the Miss America Competition.

​

You will empower young Arkansas women with educational opportunities to become our leaders of tomorrow. Join us in helping reach the 2025 scholarship goal.
